The Stock Market Has a spasmodic FIT
of Activity.

New YORK, Aug. 15.--The week at the
the character Of the speculation, the deal
iDgs still being almost entirely in the hands
Of the professionals. There was no pres
sure to sell stocks, but the buying was prin-
cipslly to cover shorts, while there was no
margin whatever for arbitrage business.
There was no news Of n character TO affect
values and very few rumors Of any i'm
portnnce whatever, the market being sim
ply stagnant throughout most OF the day.
The opening was dull aud Irregular, with
changes from Saturdays final figures
ranging up to J per cent. both ways. The
bulk Of the Business was confined to a half
dozen stocke, and, while there was some
strength shown In the early dealings, prices
soon yielded and lost fractions, which, how
ever, were fully regained before noon
The traders made spurt OF activity and
strength after that time, and several stocks
were bid up fractional amounts, but the re.
action quickly wiped out the gains, and the
usual dullpess succeeded. There was no
new feature beyond the strength in Pacific
Mail, and the market finally closed about as
IL opened, dull and steady.
Money on call has been easy, ranging
from l to Z, last loan at 1, and closing
steady. Actual business at 4S09 to 4Sl for
GO day bills, and 4s3 TO 1891 for demand.
Posted rates 4S2 to 4s5. Government
bonds dull and heavy. State bonds dull

MRS. sHILLABER's COOK BOOK A PRAC-
TlCAL GUIDE FOR HOUSEKEEPERS,
By LYDIA sHiLLAIER. With introduction
". Crowell Co.. 1s Astor place. Publish
ers.
A kitchen book worthy to ornament the
parlor's best table. Indeed, it should
there, for the mistress Of the mansion is the
proper person first to study Its valuable
pages, and superlntend the cook till sure
that the precept shall be understood.
This volume appears tc our partial
knowledge to be eminently practical, and
its instructions have had the advantage of
kitchen proof and family appreciation.
We applaud the words Of Mrs. Parting
ton In her "Opinion Of Mrs. Shillaber's
Cookbook" ~ declare It excites my sal
vation glands even to read the names of
these good things. II seems as though the
among all these meats and cosmetics to give
jest to appetite. 1t is such a benetice to
housekeepers who have exasperated all
their receipts and are tired of their own
cooking" - "Ah, many a fair homo
has been dessicated by poor cooking, and
mans table is often the rock on
which his happiness has split"
sain, M his mass som,sS as o,s p9us t,ns s BSS
thing" snow book like this
will come into house like an oasis in the
desert OF Sarah, and be quarantine OF
perpetual peace"
We have entire faith in any declaration Of
Mrs. Partington.

CHICAGO, Aug. 15--The game between tine
Chicago and Detroit clubs day was close and
exciting from start TO finish, and when 1t was
over 1000 people went home very well salts
fed. Rowes error and Anson's hit gave Chi
cago run in the first Inning but in the fourth
Richardson's single and Thompson's three
bagger tied the score. In the sixth II was
Brouthers's three.bagger which helped out
Richardson's single, but IN the last half An.
sons and Pfefler's hits made run, again tying
the score; but In the seventh Twitchelrs error,
followed by three singles and a base on balls,
gave Chicago lead OF four that Detroit could
not overcome, though trying hard. Score:

The Ideal House of the Future.

HELEN CAMPBELL, in the May Cosmopolitan.
There is no doubt that the ideal
house of the future, whether large or
small, will be in the country, and
that this massing together of human
ity, to be found now in our great
cities, will come to be considered
simply barbarous. Even for the rich,
who can claim fullest space, the city,
with its under-current of crowded,
fostering, noisome life, holds uncon-
